The Bartlett Family Adventure

The Bartlett Family Adventure is all about the moments that take my breath away as I grow in the glory of God, and live my life to the best of my ability while raising two rowdy boys. This blog is not just about me, it also includes stories of my family's daily adventures. We home school our boys, are trying to grow our fruits and vegetables, we are all on a journey to God, we are trying to live sustainably, and most importantly love the life we lead. Sometimes we stumble, but mostly I like to think we prevail. I am blogging to keep a sort of shared journal. Our life may be messy but it is perfect.

Day 12: A picture of something you love.

Day 12: A picture of something you love.
This is a picture of our first house. We bought the smallest house in the neighborhood. After I painted the master bedroom, the kitchen, and the living room it is starting to really feel like it is ours. We have planted 6 fruit trees in the back yard, 5 raspberry buses, 3 blackberry bushes, 3 pineapple guava bushes, 3 blueberry bushes, 2 grapes, and already started the raised beds for our vegetables. It sometimes feels like we are slowly falling in love with this place and it becomes a home. I love to go outside to watch spring appear on the leaves of the pear trees. I know that we are not here forever but it is nice to own our house. For the worries about this or that is ours. This is a house that we want to stay in for as long as possible, and hopefully when we have to move again we will be able to get a forever home.
